Sometimes, in love
as in death,
the end
reunites
with body a soul
poured out.
(tongue between
my teeth speech
behind my eyes
blood within
my words)
Marauder,
leave me
no more fear.
You hollow pit; you knew
the shoulds and should
nots. You did not know
the end.
(words within my eyes
blood
between my teeth tongue
again with speech)
But I have,
and oh,
and now,
I am come back to life.
